I shall show you bo- fore I got through that suioido is the worso of all crimos, and I shall lift a warning unmistakable But in tho early pari of this sermon I wish to admit that gome of tho best Christians that havo fovpr lived havo committed solf destruc tion, but always in domontia and not " responsible. I havo no moro doubt about iliejr eternal folicity than I havo of tho Christian who dies in his bod in tho do Hrltim of typhoid fever.

Havo you any doubt of tho bpatiflcation of Hugh Mil ler after his hot brain had ceased throb bing that v intor night in his study at Portobello? Among tho mightiest of earth, among tho mightiest of heaven. No ouo over doubted tho piety of Wil liam Cowpcr, tho author of jthoso three great hynnis, "Oh, For n Closer Wnlk With God!" "What Various Hin drniicc! Wo Meet!" "Thero Is n Foun tain Filled With Blood" William Cowpcr, who shares with Isano Watts and Charles Wesley tho chiof honors ol Chriptiaii hymnolofy.

While wo mako this merciful and rit-ht.WiS nllowanco in regard to those who were plunged into mental incoher ence, I declare that tho man who iu tho uko of his roa&oti, by his own act, snaps tho bond between his boely and his kouI goes straight into perdition. Shall 1 provo it? Revelation xxi, 8, "Mureler prs shall havo thoir part in tho lako which burnetii with firo and brimstcno;" Rovolatiou xxii, 15, "Without arc dogs and sorcerers and whoremonger's and murderers. ' ' You do not believe the Now Testament? Then perhaps you be lieve tho Ten Commandments, "Thou shalt not kill." Do you say all theso passages refer to tho taking of tho lifo of others? Then 1 ask you if ypu aro not as responsiblo for your own lifo as for tho lifo of others? God gavo you a special trust in your lifo. Ho made you tho custodian of your lifo as ho mado you tho custodian of no orher lifo. Ho gavo you ns weap ons with wlii oh to defend it two arms to striko back assailants, two eyes to watch for invasion and a natural love of lifo which ought over to bo on the alert. Assassination of others is a mild crimo compareel with tho assas-siuation of yourself, because in tho latter easo it is treachery to an especial trust, it is the surrender of a castlo you were especially appointed to kcop, it is treason to a nat ural law, and it is treason to God add ed to ordinary murder. To show how Goel in tho Bible looked upon this crimo I point you to tho rogues' picture gallery in somo parts of tho Bi blo, tho pictures of tho people who have committed this nnuatural crime. Here is tho headless trunk of Saul on the walls of Bathshan. Hero is tho man who chased littlo David 10 feet in staturo chasing 4. Hero is tho man who consulted a clairvoyant, witch of Eiielor. Hero is a man who, whipped in battle, instoad of surrendering his sword with dignity, as many a man has done, asks his servant to slay him, and when tho sorvant doclines then tho giant plants tho hilt of tho sword in tho earth, tho bharp point sticking upward, ami he throws his body on it and t spires, the coward, tho suicielol Hero is Ahitho phel, tho Machiavolli of olden times, betraying his best friend, David, in or der that ho may become priino minister of Absalom and joining that follow in his attempt nt parricide. Not getting what ho wanted by chaugo of politics, ho takes a short cut out of disgraced lifo into tho suicide's ctemiiy. Thero ho is, tho iugrato! Two Cases In I'olnt. Horo is Abimelech practically n sui cide. Ho is with an army bombarding a towor, when a woman in tho tower takes a grindstono from its placo and drops it upon his head, and with what lifo ho has left in a craol.td skrll he commands his armor bearer, "Draw tli. sword aud slay mo, lost men Fay wi -'i an Blow mo.

If thero be no hereafter or if that Leroafter be blissful without reference to how wo live ami how we die, why not move bsek tho foleling doers between this world and tho next! And when our existence here becomes troublesome why not pats right over into Elysium? Put this down among jour most solemn reflections and eon liekr it alter you go to yemr lioineJ thrro has never been n case of tuic ide whero tho operator was not either do mentcd, and therefore irresponsible, or an infidol.

Tom l'nlooV Ii uponslbility. You say it is business trouble, or yon say it is electrical currents, or it is this, or it is that, or it is tho other thing. Why not go clear back, my friond, and acknowledge that in every case it is the abdication of reason or tho teaching ol infidelity which practically Bays, "II you don't liko this life, get out of it, and you will land either in annihila tion, whero thero are no notes to pay, no persecutions to suffer, no gout to torment, or you will laud whero there will ho everything glorious nud nothing to pay for it. Infidelity always has been apologetic for self immolation. After Tom Puiiie's "Ago of Reason" was pub lished and widely read thoro was a marked increase of self slaughter. Roussoan, Voltaire, Gibbon, Mon taigne, under, certain circumstances, wcro apologetio for self immolation. Infidelity puts up no bar to people's rush ing out from this world into tho next. They toach us it does not mako any differenco how you Jive here or go out of this world, you will land either iu an oblivious nowhero or a glorious some where. And infidelity holds tho upper end of the ropo for tho suioido, and aims tho pistol with which a man blows his brains out, nud mixes tho strychnino for tho last swallow. If infidelity could carry tho eluy and pcisuacle tho major ity of people that it does not mako any differenco how you go out of tho world you will land safely, tho rivers would bo so full of oorpsos the ferryboats would be impoded in thoir progress, mid tho crack of a suioide's pistol would br no more alarming than tho rumblo of a street car. Christ Wo Tempted. Ah, infidelity, stand up and tako thy sentence! In the presenco of God and angels and men, stand up, thou mon ster, thy lip blasted with blasphemy, thy cheok scarred with lust, thy breath foul with tho corruption of tho ages! Stand up, satyr, filthy goat, buzzard oi tho nations, lepor of tho centuries! Stand up, thou monster infidelity, part man, part panther, part reptile, part dragon, stand up aud tako thy sentence! Thy hand is red with tho blood in which thou hast washed, thy feet crim son with tho human gore through which thou hast waded, Stand up and tako thy senteucol Down with theo to tho pit nud sup on tho sobs and groans of families thou hast blasted, nnd roll on tho bed of knives which thou Imst sharpened for others, and lotthymusio bo tho everlast ing miserere of thoso whom thou hast damned! I brand thoforohead cf infidel ity with all tho crimes of self immola tion for tho last century on tho part of thoso who had thoir reason. My friends, if over your lifo through its abrasions and its molestations should seem to bo unbearable, nnd you are tempted to quit it by your own behest, do notcousider yoursolves as worso than others. Christ himself was tempted to cast himself from tho roof of tho tern plo, but os ho resisted bo resist ye. Christ came tomedicinoollourwounels. In your trouble I prescribe lifo instead of death. Peoplowho havo had it worse than you will over havo it liuvo gone songful on their way. Remember that Goel keeps the chronology of your life with as much prcpision as lie keeps tho chronology of uatious, A Christian'! Lifo nnd Death. Why was it that at midnight, just at midnight, tho destroying angel struck tho blow that sot the Israelites free from bondage? Tho 480 years wero up at 12 o'clock that night Tho 4110 yean wcro not up nt 11, nnd 1 o'clock would havo been tardy and too late. Tho 430 years wero u at 12 o'clock, and tho de stroying ungol struck tho blow, and fhiael was free. And God knows just tho hour when it is timo to lead you up from eaithly bondage, By his grace mako not the worst of things, but tho best of them. If you must take tho pills, Jo not chew them. Your everlasting re wards will accord with your earthly perturbations, just as Cains gavo to Agrippa a chain of gold as heavy as had been his chain of iron. For your ucking you may havo tho same grace that wa-i given to tho Jtulian martyr, Algeiius, who, down iu tho darkest of dungeons, dated bis letter from "tho delectable orchard of tho Leouino pris on."

Bernard Big lin was thero in the interest of Grant. Both wore old personal friends. The night beforo tho b.illoting began Biglln and two others wero appointed a com tnitteo to look after several sou thorn delegations, among them being tho Ken tucky delegation. When Blglin and his associates nr rived at tho Kentucky hendqunrters, thry found that Dlttenhoefer had got ahe.id of them. Ho had tho floor and was de livering it strong rpeecb against Grant 6aying, among other things, that Grant could not cany Now York. Biglin Baw that Dittenhoofer's remarks wero having great weight, and ho realizod that ho wau no match for him as n, talker. What to elo toLreak tho forcoof Dittenhoefer's speech was the problem that confronted Biglin. Thi3 was tho method ho se lected. In tho midst of Dittenhoefer's peroration Biglin called out in loud voice, "Who is that man?" "Why, ho is ox-Judgo Dittenhoofer of Now York," 6aid a. member of tho Ken tucky delegation. "Oh, no; that's not Judge Dlttenhoe fer ," said Biglin. "I know Judge Ditten hoefer well. This man may pretend to bo Dittenhoefer to strangers, but he knows better than to try to work any such rackotwith New Yorkers. I tell you he's a fraud." Biglin's remarks inado a sensation. Suspicious glances wero cast at Dltten hoefer by members of tho Kentucky del egation. The former got red in tho face and walked up to Biglin. "Barney," he said, holding out his hand, "that's a pretty good joko of yours, not to knpw me." "Joko," shouted Biglin in contempt. "It's no joke, I can tell you. I will just bet you $20 that you are not Judge Dit tenhoefer of New York." Biglin flour ished a $20 bill in Dittenhoefer's faco. Of course ho had to accept tho chal lenge. Tho money was put up in the hands of a member of tho delegation. Dittenhoefer hurried away to got some one to identify him. When he returned, Biglin had disappeared, likowiso tho stakeholder. After tho convention Dit tenhoefer met Biglin in tho hotel corri dor. "What did you mean," ho said, "by saying you did not know mo that night at the Kentucky headquarters?" "What did you mean," said Biglin, "by saying th'ii-Grant could not carrj New York?" "That was politics," nnsworod Ditten hoefer. "Well," said Biglin, "it was politics my not knowing you."
